Chase

Workout of the Day

Gymnastics 

Spend 10-15 minutes working on three different gymnastics movements. Ideally, you will choose movements that are a weakness …

Muscle-ups, toes to bar, knees to elbows, pull-ups, handstand push-ups, handstand holds/walking, pistols, double-unders, ring-dips, L-sits, etc…

An effective way to do this is to choose three exercises and do short skill sets. Here is an example:

Three sets, NOT for time, of:
8-10 Handstand Push-ups (push-ups)
1 Rope Climb
10-12 Butterfly pull-ups (ring rows)

Come with a plan…and execute it.
